Islamic law goes into great detail on whether one can ritually wash oneself in standing water vs. running water contaminated with urine. Or whether you can urinate in a jar first and then ritually wash yourself with stagnant water, then pour the contents together.

Both al-Awlaki and Khan were killed. Rational observers -- including CNN -- applauded the strike. Al-Jazeera cried for the dead terrorists. What did the Obama Administration do? The U.S. State Department reached out to Khan’s family with a “condolence call” on the death of their son.
